We got married here on 9/2/23 & our entire experience was absolutely amazing. Ali was incredible from start to finish & her skills truly shined the night of our wedding by handling everything & making the night so smooth & stress free! We got married in the large downstairs venue & had our ceremony on the patio. Staff, food & drinks were all great. We looked at so many venues & we were so happy when we found this one. What sold us was the huge bar & very spacious room. Overall amazing venue & very thankful we had Ali! Reviewed on 10-10-2023

The Wurlitzer and my event coordinator Ali were amazing. I had my ceremony in the upstairs ballroom and the reception in the downstairs ballroom. Ali was super helpful in my planning process, was super responsive to my many emails, and set up my decor exactly as I wanted. I have nothing but good things to say about the Wurlitzer as the building is beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious, the downstairs bridal suite was super convenient, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. They were also flexible with the dietary issues of my guests. I would highly recommend the Wurlitzer. Reviewed on 21-07-2023
Stephanie Hahn(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-10-2022 Our experience working with Don was incredible from start to finish. They were first on our list of possible vendors and after our consolation seeing the venue in person and how everything was perfect for our budget, we were sold. Don was very responsive to any questions we had throughout the whole planning process. We had our ceremony in the recital room and our reception in the tower room. Both were absolutely gorgeous and made my wedding vision come to life! We got so many compliments on how the food was the best wedding food our guests have ever had. We had such a wonderful selection for our buffet, apps were delicious and the dessert spread was spectacular. The bar service was wonderful and everyone enjoyed themselves. The only reason i’m not giving a 5 star review is because our favors weren’t set out as requested and we needed to get them to everyone during dinner, but other than that everything was absolutely perfect!

Hannah Greene(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-09-2022 Wurlitzer was absolutely amazing to work with! Our day of coordinator stayed consistent throughout our year and a half of planning and is what sold us on this venue. Ali was amazing at communicating with us throughout the planning process. The day of service was IMPECCABLE! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food, bar service, and how beautiful the venue was. Could not recommend this venue more! They made everything so stress free for us! Reviewed on 03-10-2022
Justine Pazderski(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-07-2022 Look no further than the Wurlitzer for your wedding! They were the best vendor I worked with for the wedding - so responsive and accommodating, they made planning a wedding SO easy. I had quite a few vendors, lots of decor and special elements, and Wurlitzer said yes to everything. They were able to set up everything I brought in with no issues. The cost and packages are also incredibly affordable - definitely the best bang for your buck. The food was DELICIOUS - guests were raving about it when we went table to table after dinner. Our appetizers were amazing too!Most of the credit for my amazing experience with the Wurlitzer goes to Ali. She was INCREDIBLE to work with and did everything with a smile on her face! She is incredibly knowledgeable and had great ideas and answered all of my many questions. She has an incredibly calm and can-do attitude; nothing was out of the question and we were able to make my perfect wedding vision come to life! It would not have been a success without her! Thank you, Ali! Reviewed on 22-08-2022

Lauren Lamparelli(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-11-2020 We used The Wurlitzer for my bridal shower. Due to Covid, we had to change our original plans from months before, but my bridal shower was even better than the original one we planned all due to The Wurlitzer! Ali was wonderful to work with. She responded quickly and thoroughly to all of my emails, and she was extremely accommodating. The staff who worked the event were friendly and helpful. The space was absolutely beautiful. Our guests complimented the space and how delicious the food was. We were able to add on nice touches like use of the courtyard patio, as well as champagne upon arrival in the courtyard. The event was truly a dream! I highly recommend this venue. Reviewed on 18-09-2020
Catherine Tringali(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-11-2019 The Wurlitzer was a beautiful setting for our November reception. The food was amazing, the space clean and well kept, and the staff beyond professional. Don and his team made our day perfect. We had attended a wedding here prior to booking our own, and knew as soon as we got engaged that this was the venue for us. We loved the patio just outside the space with string lights and a fire pit - which proved to be a popular spot for some of our guests even during the chilly November evening. Our guests raved about the food and our final guest list of 250 fit perfectly in the room - even with a full band, remembrance table, and more ( I was very concerned about feeling cramped, but the space was just right with a perfectly sized dance floor). A system glitch did cause us to have to change our date early on, but it was caught close enough to signing our contract that it didn't cause issues with other vendors. Also, not all of the details we provided the team to set up were put out (small detailed items), but we were the only ones who knew that it didn't happen, so it wasn't something that affected our guests' experience, which is what it's ultimately about! This venue also had a special family tie for us - as a great-uncle used to work at the building in it's first life as a piano factory. This venue is the perfect combination of old world industrial meets modern design. It could stand on it's own without much additional decor, but could also be a blank slate for any theme. Love it and can't wait to attend more events here as guests! Reviewed on 25-03-2020
